Very good point and it's the natural question for the founder of any new religion. "Why would God watch everyone get it all wrong for centuries and only now decide to talk to YOU and you alone?"
I also draw an important parallel between Islam and Protestantism. Both indulge in a dreamscape vision of the "original church" of Jesus that was so much more pure and true to his teachings before somebody or some group of people corrupted everything.
